[Verse 1]
All my life leading up to this
For an industry kiss
While my mother and my father are watching it
[Verse 2]
Twenty-nine say you're twenty-five
That's the company line
But a line is just a lie with the fight out of it
[Pre-Chorus]
See me shake in my tired old frame
Borrow white suit
My eyes staring knives at you
[Chorus]
Saying this is a war
This is a war
This is a war
Between my body and my heart
This is a war
Between integrity and art
[Verse 3]
Suck my blood
Get your teeth in deep
There's some left in me
But I'm getting pretty old and I will cease to be
[Verse 4]
Do you hear
How the orchestra breaks?
Every line of space
Every minute, every second that I put in place
[Pre-Chorus]
See me shake in my tired old frame
Borrow white suit
My eyes staring knives at you
[Chorus]
Saying this is a war
This is a war
This is a war
Between my body and my heart
This is a war
Between integrity and art
[Outro]
This is a war
Between my body and my heart
This is a war
Between integrity and art
This is a war
This is a war
This is a war
This is a war
